I take a person-centered approach in that the client is the expert on their lives, and the therapist guides them towards better mental health.
My ideal client would be a child, adolescent, or adult with a degree of insight/self-awareness into their presenting issues and motivation to improve their mental health. My most prominent diagnoses specialties include anxiety and depression. I enjoy working with clients on interpersonal problems, building coping skills, practicing mindfulness, and changing mindset/ thought patterns. My ideal client's goals include increasing a sense of peace and acceptance, working towards change, and developing healthier habits to improve wellbeing. A client who wants to change and be a better version of themselves is willing to be challenged.

My ideal client is one who is willing to explore uncomfortable areas in their life and understand that vulnerability is part of the process. One of the most important parts of therapy to me is highlighting accountability and what roles we play in our own lives. I enjoy working with clients who are struggling with relationship issues, self-esteem, irrational thinking, and life adjustments. A client who can pinpoint what they would like to improve in their life and request a little bit of guidance along the way is an ideal client. Their goal is not to be perfect but to improve their day-to-day life a little more each day.
